By- Nagendra Singh,Bhopal :The importance of specialised training in technical education itself increases when we talk about extension of facilities in this field. In simple words, it means that those who are undergoing technical training must also be imparted training for giving them a solid base of economic self-dependence.
In the light of this fact, there is need of constant efforts in Madhya Pradesh. So far the state government is concerned we have moved much ahead in this direction with firm dedication. In our efforts to extend technical education facilities we have started new technical and industrial training institutions at 16 different places during the last four years. These places include Malhargarh, Khachrod, Khaknar, Picholi, Chhaparas, Prithvipur, Manpur, Kevlari, Barghat, Badarwas, Mauganj, Bhander, Guna, Mohendra, Mandideep and Sidhi. I have mentioned these places because most of them fall in remote rural and tribal areas. It manifests our firm determination that the technical education training does not remain confined to big cities and district headquarters only but it should be imparted at small towns and remote areas also so that students of such areas are not constrained to move out of their places to acquire technical education training.
I would like to draw your attention to one more necessity that with changing times the nature of trades is also undergoing change and therefore, we will have to arrange training to the next generation in the transformed context apart from training in the traditional trades and professions. Since we fully realised importance of this matter, therefore, we started Medical and Electronics training at Indore-situated institute, IT and electronics system management training at Ujjain, Indore, Jabalpur, Sagar and Bhopal, printing technician training at Indore, Ujjain, Jabalpur and Bhopal, electrician training at Niwali, Bamania, Seoni, Bargi, Orchha and Jaithari, data operator training at Dhar, Orchha and Nepanagar, computer hardware training at Dewas, plumber training in Jobat and Nepanagar, welder and fabricator training at Bada Malahra, Kotma and Raisen, driver-cum-mechanic at Khaniyadan and farm mechanic in Seoni Malwa. Thus, we launched training in ten modern and new professions.
In every field, work is done existing projects apart from taking up new experiments and beginnings. Then only we can move towards achieving our target successfully. In this context we decided to train one youth from each village to impart him training as engineer and during the last four years 7000 youths have been benefited by this scheme. During the 110-day training of mason, electrician and plumber the trainees were given Rs 500 per month stipend also. During the last four years we also raised the number of such training institutes. There were 33 training institutes in the year 2004, 35 in 2005-2006, 37 in 2006-07 and now during 2007-08 the number of training institutes has jumped to 57.
Our government has also constantly increased the number of computer training institutes to impart training to young boys and girls belonging to scheduled castes and scheduled tribes. We not only trained 4520 youths during the last four years but also gradually increased the number of training institutes from 32 to 82. The intention is loud and clear that these sections of society should be given computer training in large numbers.
Another achievement of our government is that we added seven new professions under the scheme of job-oriented training by the year 2006-07. These professions and trades include driving, pump mechanic, front office assistant, fashion technology, hair and skin care, desktop publication and architect assistant. During the last four year, we have benefited 14,171 youths under this scheme.
We know the art of keeping pace with time. This is the reason why we have always remained alert about ever-changing latest techniques. With this in mind, we have been improving the training centres by making them more equipped with resources. As a result, we have improved eight industrial training institutes in 2005-06, seven in 2007-08 and during 2007-08 we are going to improve 11 institutes.
One of our purposes behind improving industrial training institutes is that training facilities should reach the remotest parts of the state so that residents of those areas would not have to wander here and there. Now the improved industrial training institutes impart training in automobile, information technology, garment making, production and manufacturing, electronics, construction and wood working, food processing, tourism, agriculture machinery mechanic, refrigeration and air-conditioning, fabrication, processing plant maintenance etc. Ninety-six seats were made available in eight selected institutes for training during the year 2005-06. The number remained the same in 2006-07. Now we are going to improve 19 more training institutes with private sector participation.
We have made yet another important decision that arrangement of production should also be made at the industrial training institutes along with training. During the current financial year we have started the process of converting all the district-level industrial training institutes into training-cum-production centres. Similarly, we have received the go-ahead for staring State-level Driving Training Institute at Indore-situated Industrial Training Institute and we have started arrangements for its building, appliances and staff.
